George Rotheram


George Rotheram was a Member of Parliament for Bedfordshire.
Rotheram was the son of Thomas Rotheram and Alice Wellesford or Wilsford. He lived at Someries Castle, Luton.
Rotheram married Jane Smith, daughter of Christopher Smith of Annables, Hertfordshire. His second wife was Elizabeth Barnes, daughter of London mercer, Richard Barnes.
In 1597 he tried to acquire the title of the barony of Ruthin, but failed. He had a family tree drawn up by William Dethick to support his claim.
Another branch of the family lived at Farley Hill, Luton, where Anne of Denmark stayed with Sir John Rotherham on 26 July 1605.
